Strawberry Lemonaide Punch
Ingredients
- 1 12 oz can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
- 1 12 oz can frozen strawberry daiquiri mix or frozen strawberries
- 1 2-liter bottle lemon-lime soda (Sprite or 7UP), chilled
- 2 cups cold water
- 1 cup ice optional, or serve over ice
- Fresh lemon slices and strawberries for garnish
Instructions
- In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine the thawed lemonade concentrate and strawberry daiquiri mix (or frozen strawberries). Stir in 2 cups of cold water until well mixed.
- Slowly pour in the chilled lemon-lime soda. Stir gently to combine. The soda adds bubbles, so avoid over-mixing to keep it fizzy.

- Pour over ice into glasses and serve immediately, or keep chilled until ready to serve.
Notes
Notes & Tips
- Make it ahead: Mix everything but the soda. Add the soda right before serving to preserve the fizz.
- Add a frozen twist: Use frozen strawberries instead of fresh to keep the punch cold without diluting it.
- Want it pinker? Add a splash of cranberry juice for extra color.
- Adult version: Add a splash of vodka, rum, or sparkling rosé for a grown-up twist.
